Bowmore Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (2000's Bottling) 25 Year Old

Colour

Deep burnished amber with coppery-mahogany undertones.

Nose

Fruity smokiness rises in a coastal, Islay-inspired bouquet. Peat smoke mingles with bright lemon and apricot, while fig and vanilla deepen toward a sherried sweetness. A touch of sea salt and oak spice lends maritime elegance, finishing with refined, lasting balance.

Palate

Silky and lush, the palate unfolds with fruity smoke—orange peel, dried apricot, and ripe pear—carried by Bowmore’s signature peat. Sherry cask influence broadens the mid-palate with fig, raisin, and toasted almond, beneath a velvety sweetness. The finish is long and maritime, with cocoa, spice, and sea-salt warmth lingering as the smoke slowly fades.

Finish

An enduring, fruity-smoked finish: orchard sweetness carries through peat, while fig and dark chocolate unfold under oak and a touch of sherry. The coastal warmth lingers, softly fading into a refined, resinous echo that stays long after the last sip.
